just noticed i am expected to do freestyle... seriously, had i seen it, i would not have joined. freestyle sucks!.. sigh...

[Dukasaur]

It's only the one round.... you're survive...

Just a reminder:

So, this was the first game I joined, but it took much longer than the other game, so it was my second victory.
Game 8003331 against [player]greenoaks[/player], [player]zackspack[/player], and others.
This was a five-player game, but two of the players are no longer on CC, so I'm only naming the ones that are still around. The settings were pretty brutal, too: Manual Freestyle Nuclear Chained. Ugh! Yes, those are the settings you will have to win on!
A special appeal to freestyle haters: Yes, I know freestyle sucks. But please don't reject this tournament based on one phase that has a setting you don't like. Broaden your horizons! Hey, I suck at freestyle (you want to know just HOW BAD I suck at it? After a year on CC, I still don't have my freestyle Silver!) but I managed to beat greenoaks, a freestyle master, so anything is possible!
[spoiler=phase 2 a]The 75 winners from Phase 1 will be randomly matched into 5-player games on the Ancient Greece map, Manual Freestyle Nuclear Chained. The 15 winners will score 3 points and go directly to Phase 3 A, while the 60 losers will get a second chance in Phase 2 B.[/spoiler]
[spoiler=phase 2 b]The 60 losers from Phase 2 A will be randomly matched into 5-player games on the same map and settings. The 12 winners will score 2 points and go directly to Phase 3 A, while the 48 losers will get a third chance in Phase 2 C.[/spoiler]
[spoiler=phase 2 c]The 48 losers from Phase 2 B along with 12 players randomly drawn from the "Another Chance lottery pool" will be randomly matched into 5-player games on the same map and settings. The 12 winners will score 1 point and go to Phase 3 A, while the 48 losers will get put back into the "Another Chance lottery pool".[/spoiler]

[SirSebstar]

efreddy missed his third invite. From the lottery pool, I randomly drew GreenBaize to take his spot.

There are still 4 active games in Phase 2A. After that we have 2B and 2C before we get to Phase 3.

[bragsie]

our game is still going, waiting for the eliminated any moment now, some huge stacks and nobody moving except pink

KILL! KILL! KILL!

[Dukasaur]

WOW!

That damn game finally ended!

Thank you dean!

Anyway, we can move forward. I'll try to get the next round out within the next day or two.

[Dukasaur]

I'm at work right now, and my spreadsheets are at home, so I won't be able to do a full update right now. However, it is a fairly simple matter to just do a list of the Phase 2A losers who will play in Phase 2B:

We are beginning Phase 2B. Games have been created and invitations sent out!

[Dukasaur]

Jeraado and danhulbert have now missed two invites each. I'll give danhulbert a third chance, but jeraado has not been on CC in over a week, so I suppose we'd better go ahead and replace him.

From the Second Chance lottery I have randomly drawn blindman30 as a replacement for jeraado.

[DoomYoshi]

Leehar and Dukasaur are obviously multis.

Good job, Fewnix! Congratulations on the medal!

[redzonejoe]

Hey, I'm not doing too bad with the dukapoints. BunnRee is doing damn good though, Good job Bee! Can hardly wait for round 3 to start
^_^

[MGSteve]

Bee is a great player, a great teammate and just a cool person. Good luck Bee. After me, you're my favorite pick for winner of this shindig.

[Dukasaur]

Down to two active games now.... with a bit of luck there will be much less delay between 2B and 2C than there was between 2A and 2B!

[Dukasaur]

Good work everyone!

Phase 2B ended much faster than Phase 2A!

I shall have to get to work and get the next round out, either tonight or towmorrow.
